The Chair is an in-game object used to alleviate tiredness. Chairs come in different designs (e.g. a couch or an egg chair), but they function the same way.
Usage
By [interacting] with the chair, you are able to sit on it. Sitting on a seat will replenish stamina / relieve fatigue by about 2 points per second. To get off a chair, use the "direction" keys. While someone else is seated on a chair, you cannot sit. However, you can hit a character to get them off the chair.
During Free Time, NPCs will occasionally rest on a chair. At mealtime, Inmates will sit on a Food Hall chair to eat their food.
Certain chairs will trigger certain events:
- Sitting on a seat at the visitation center during Free Time will summon a visitor. Visitors will say several quotes and leave the prison, but sometimes, they will give you presents in TE2.
- Sitting on a seat at the Job Office at Job Time while unemployed will bring forth an employment officer (categorized as Maintenance in TE2). The officer will say several quotes, and if you are seated until the end, you will earn 10 money.
- If you are holding a tray and sit down in a chair in the Food Hall, you will begin eating the food in your tray, recharging your stamina / mitigating your fatigue by about 6 points per second and regenerating health at an increased rate.
Trivia
- If you sit in the villain's chair in the Duct Tapes Are Forever DLC, you will earn the achievement "On Top of the World"
